Hiking between the sea and the lakes

To the most beautiful corners of the country

You are here:s

Along the Baltic Sea coast, through the glistening lake district or following the trail of the old Hanseatic League - the possibilities are endless in the walking paradise of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

The perfect beauty of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern can only really be discovered on foot. The whole magic of the region unfolds as you walk along a rugged bluff or beneath the leafy canopy of stately beeches. Hikers on peaceful forays following the tracks of nature can observe rutting deer in the National Park or sedately circling eagles and enjoy a clandestine dip in a hidden lake. It's also worthwhile hiking through the quaint villages or lively seaside resorts, the cosy cafés provide a welcome retreat.

Discovering Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on foot is a worthwhile pursuit whatever the season. The spring and autumn - when cranes migrate and foliage turns green and gold - are magnificent times for nature lovers.

There's something for everybody here, from a quick jaunt to an extensive hiking tour. Three European hiking trails run through the coastal landscape. The day and multi-day walks are especially good for a weekend jaunt. Guided tours are perfect for those with an inquisitive mind.
